In your example, appA and appB are not parents of libC... they simply
have a dependency on it.

If you establish a parent pom, and list all five of your projects as
<modules>, Maven will figure out what order to build them in, and
compile the changed sources.  (It might not be quite as efficient as
Ant, for example I think if you run 'mvn install' it will still
package up and install the jar, even if nothing needed to be compiled.
 YMMV.)
